When I go exploring, especially in the really weird places, I always enjoy the feeling that no one has been here before me, that maybe the first footprints are mine, that some forgotten place has now been awakened from a hundred years of sleeping just by me being there.
And then, of course, around a corner, some idiot has painted a lot of ugly letters on the wall.
I always leave everything in pristine condition when I go. I take nothing, and try not to disturb anything. It's not exploring otherwise, it's simply raping the place of that initial wonder and solitude. How horrible it is to write your name on a wall in the darkest, most empty places. Do you reall do it to simply rob someone else of the feeling of being first? |

Well, you are never the first one at a place. But I agree with you. The tag makes every place feel the same as they look the same.
I prefer leaving objects behind. Mysterious traces of something to be explored. |

| I for myself love finding grafitti from wayback, "ragnar nordlund 1936" really put things in perspective, and as nordvall I have no illusions of ever beeing the first anywhere... |

| Im not under any 'illusions', it is just indulging in fantasy. And thank you Nordwall for encouraging it. |
